Novak Djokavic is blocked from the Australian Open by immigration as his vaccine papers are not in order. He's the first player be knocked out of the Grand Slam after missing only two shots. I think we were all wrong about Hitler escaping to Argentina, he obviously made his way to Australia.
ABC News says Chicago's homicide rate last year was the highest it's been in thirty years. The Chicago Police Department logged in over eight hundred murders as well as thirty-five hundred people shot. This does not help the city's new tourism motto: Come Back to Chicago — We Missed You.
The Supreme Court deliberated on the constitutionality of President Biden's vaccine mandate on corporations Friday. It's tough, but we all have to hang in there, because the end is clearly in sight. I believe we're just two or three more Spider Man movies away from being out of this pandemic.
Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced on Zoom Sunday that she has Covid. This proves that the virus is mutating to the left. The day after she revealed her test results, AOC received a get-well card from the House Conservative Caucus urging her to stay positive.
President Biden came to the Capitol Thursday to re-live the Capitol Hill riots. In the ceremony Biden called for nationwide mail-in voting and ballot harvesting that sparked the riot in the first place. The ceremony Thursday was a grim reminder of what you get when you order a president by mail.
President Biden told the Senate to break the filibuster and pass a voting rights bill to allow mail-in ballots.

Dr. Fauci accused a senator of endangering his life and refused to answer a question pointing to evidence that Covid originated in the Wuhan lab he'd supported. His alarm bell is starting to wear out. Dr. Fauci warned that if you think things are bad now, the next variant plays the accordian.
President Biden posted a video from Delaware flanked by his wife wishing Americans a happy and healthy New Year for 2022. The past year 2021 was full of shocking surprises all the way to the end. This time last year, who would've thought that Ghislaine Maxwell would outlive Betty White?
Staples office supply reports they are selling a lot more home and business planning calendars for 2022 than last year, indicating public optimism that life will be returning to normal. My calendar shows Sunday was Science Fiction Day. Its purpose is to raise awareness of global warming.
New York City's new mayor is warring with the Manhattan DA's refusal to prosecute crimes of poverty. The town's gone insane. In New York, at breakfast time you can rob a bank, and be released without bail at lunchtime, but at dinnertime you cannot eat at McDonald's without a vaccination card.
